Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy of venetoclax (Venclexa® or Venclyxto®) in combination with obinutuzumab (Gazyva® or Gazyvaro®) (VEN + G) compared with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR)/ bendamustine and rituximab (BR) on the basis of minimal residual disease (MRD) response rate;Secondary Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy of VEN + G compared with FCR/BR on the basis of progression-free survival, MRD response rate in PB and BM, objective response rate, complete response rate, duration of objective response, best response achieved, event-free survival, overall survival - To evaluate safety of VEN + G compared with FCR/BR on the basis of nature, frequency, and severity of adverse events, changes in vital signs, physical findings, clinical laboratory test results, premature withdrawals - To compare disease and treatment-related symptoms and to evaluate changes in physical functioning, role functioning, and global health status/quality of life following treatment with the combination of VEN + G compared with FCR/BR in patients with previously untreated CLL without del(17p) or TP53 mutation measured by M.D. Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI-CLL) and European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30);Primary end point(s): 1. MRD response rate measured in PB at Month 15 in the first 140 patients recruited 2. Nature , frequency, and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. At Month 15 for each patient, Month 36 in the study 2. Up to 28 days after the last dose of study drug, or until initiation of another anti-cancer therapy | — |
